They've got a job to do. They're facing heavy opposition. A strategy is called for. Like, say, "shoot all the other guys". Why make things complicated? Sometimes the good guys have to go into heavily defended territory. There aren't any neutrals there, and it's too dangerous to leave any of the opponents alive. Maybe they're the defenders and the only things coming towards their position are trying to kill them. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Or, hell, maybe you just like shooting people. But to be clear, if you're the sort of person (or army, or species) that fights every fight this way, then you're just Trigger-Happy, and this trope doesn't really fit you. This trope is about those situations where that really seems like the only solution to whatever problem you're in. Of course, if you're Trigger Happy, you may jump to that conclusion a little faster. More Dakka might come in handy now, but it's not necessary — sometimes it's knives or clubs. Usually this isn't Gotta Kill Them All or Leave No Survivors, because you've got some objective other than killing people — say, you're rescuing someone, or getting out of the prison camp, or making the Nazis surrender. But for whatever reason, if you see anything alive, you need to make it less alive. (If you want to put a positive spin on things, just call it a "target-rich environment.") Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Similar to Leave No Survivors. But in that case, the emphasis is on making sure everyone is dead — if someone hides and you miss him, you've failed. Shoot Everything That Moves is more about the situation where everything you see is a threat and a target — if something runs or hides and doesn't come out until you're gone, that's just fine. See also Leave No Witnesses, for the situation where the people around you aren't imminent threats, but they know too much for you to leave them alive. Too many video games to count are played this way, from Space Invaders on up. So only list video games that aren't just Everything Is Trying to Kill You (and you're returning the favor). Not to be confused with Anything That Moves, though with some people, you never know... |

This is what the basic plan for the final battle of Shadowhunter Peril turned out to be. Yes there were battle strategies, yes their primary goal was to get the kids out of the city, but once that was ensured and a few of the multiple Big Bads were occupied, it turned into shoot-or-stab-anything-that-isn't-remotely-human-until-it-is-unrecognizable-chunks. and it worked quite well. | |

In Mailed Fist, tank commander John Foley describes an engagement in Holland where he had to lead his three tanks down a forest road by night, knowing the woods to either side were full of Germans with Panzerfausts. He detailed his machine-gunners to continually fire into the forest to either side and his drivers to go flat out. None of his tanks were hit, and in the morning there were quite a lot of dead Germans with anti-tank rockets they had not had a chance to fire. | |

Kid Icarus: Uprising has the Big Bad Hades, who has temporarily teamed up with you due to an Aurum invasion, order his troops to "shoot anything that moves", as the enemy forces are a dangerous threat that could destroy the Earth, a rich source of souls for Hades. Of course, "anything that moves" can include you as well, mostly because that particular commander is a gigantic troll. | |

When the eponymous duo from the first Ratchet and Clank game intercept a message from Ultimate Supreme Executive Chairman Drek to his troops, they see that his instructions to them in regard to the invasion of a city were as follows: 1) Destroy everything that moves. 2) Steal the power generators from Gorda City 3) Destroy everything that doesn't move. 4) Oh, and don't forget! Have fun. |

Mentioned a few times in the Vorkosigan Saga as a viable combat tactic when using stunners since it reduces friendly fire mistakes from potentially lethal to merely annoyingnote - it's implied, but not directly stated, that Ivan's yell of "Stunner Tag!", while foiling an attack on Lord Dono, is (perhaps informal) Military shorthand for this tactic; it's also extremely useful for hostage situations. Unless, that is, someone has a heart condition, or the hostage takers have rigged some kind of dead-man switch as a precaution against exactly this tactic, or a stunned target goes over a railing... | |

28 Weeks Later has a fairly horrific scene where the soldiers are attempting to secure a compound by shooting Infected, except that due to the speed and the confusion it's hard for them to tell the Infected from the panicked civilians running away from them. Then the snipers get the order that everyone is considered a target... Although given the alternative was being pulled down by a horde of Technically Living Zombies infected with an incurable Hate Plague, the civilians were getting off lightly. | |

Evil Genius: Normally it's better to social-fu incoming agents into submission, then capture anyone with a heat rating, releasing them from the cage only in the name of either torturing them to death or using them to gain XP for your henchmen. However, there are three buttons on the interface that control the alert setting. The green one involves everyone going around unarmed. The yellow has workers and combat minions carry guns, but not use them unless ordered to do so. The red? That's the instruction to engage anything not a minion or henchman on sight. It tends to be reserved for the endgame siege, where socialising stops being viable and the only remaining strategy is to kill indiscriminately. | |

Syndicate Wars was usually played using point and click, selective attacking - but you had the ability to pump your agents full of psychotropic drugs that would either make them auto-attack anything with a weapon, or just anything that moves and is within combat range. Not usually useful, but spectacular with the right weapons. | |

Warhammer 40,000 : The 'Annihilate' mission and the basic victory-point-based mission in previous editions and in all of the subordinate games give each side the objective of killing the enemy. This is the main strategy of any Ork army. If you isn't shootin' you is muckin' about! |

In Wild Wild West, President Ulysses S. Grant comments: "And you, West, not every situation calls for your patented approach of shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more, and then when everybody's dead try to ask a question or two". | |

In Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard, the main character is initially given a laundry list of objectives, before complaining about it. His Voice with an Internet Connection then gives him a new, simpler objective, which is the trope word for word. | |

In the Film Reroll version of "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial" (which, to put it mildly, diverges somewhat from the plot of the film), the climactic sequence involves E.T. and another member of his species leading a group of human marines to infiltrate a hostile alien warship. The marines are instructed that to be on the safe side they should shoot anyone they meet who isn't human or a member of E.T.'s species. The roleplayers who are being the marines follow this instruction with gusto, not always to the benefit of their mission. | |

In Stargate Atlantis, O'Neill gets annoyed with Woolsey continually calling out "General, is that you?" when he hears something. So when he needs to go activate a control in a flooded area, he hands Woolsey a gun and says, "If something is coming, then it isn't me. Don't call out to it. Shoot it." | |
